Our raw clay arrives in George from a local mine in South Africa.
The clay sausages get hand banged and then slab rolled to get the correct thickness for each item depending on their size and shape.
The potters diligently work each shape , perfecting all the different elements that build a strong yet light and soft shape.
The items get the Wonki Ware stamp and then begin the natural hardening and drying process of the raw clay .
The hardened shapes are then fettled with a scraper and the edges are softened with a wet sponge.
At this stage of the process the product is known as greenware. The raw clay has hardened enough to pick it up however is still very breakable.
The greenware is now ready for its first firing in the bisque kiln. This process turns the greenware to hard bisque, pictured below. It is now ready to be allocated to an order and continue with the next leg of the journey

Bali.
Wonki Ware has an incredible way of bringing food to life and bringing life to food.
Seeing our beautiful plates and accessories filled with delicious local Balinese dishes gave us a warm fuzzy feeling! The colours and textures of this magical island and our Wonki Ware made for some beautiful pics!
Rice paper rolls with peanut sauce, served in small salt and salsa dishes, and Strawberry mint lemonade to cool down after a hot day of exploring. Bali is full of incredible craftsman, be it wood, glass, silver or paint, there is so much handmade art to be seen.
Classic meigoreng topped with a fried egg and a tempe burger, dished up in our versatile small spaghetti and organic side plate. Was a classic favourite throughout the trip.
Fresh fruit salad and a morning wake up shot of lemon & ginger. Breakfasts in Bali were as colourful as Wonki Ware.
Scrambled eggs and fruit salad inclusive breakfast while we paid the Ubud markets a visit.
Bali coffee and avocado toast! Exactly what we needed before taking some time off market hunting to explore some of the beautiful beaches.
